#BTCvsMarkets So Bitcoin vs other cryptos, it's a bit like classical chess vs bullet: the same universe, but different philosophies.

Bitcoin (BTC):

• The undisputed king. Created in 2009, it is the pioneer of crypto.

• It mainly serves as a store of value (like digital gold).

• Very secure, very decentralized, but not ultra-fast or flexible.

• Its goal: to be an alternative to fiat currencies.

Altcoins (Ethereum, Solana, etc.):

• They often try to go further:

• Ethereum (ETH) for example, allows for smart contracts, thus decentralized applications (DeFi, NFT, DAO…).

• Solana, Avalanche, Cardano seek to improve speed, fees, energy efficiency, etc.

• More innovative often, but sometimes less stable or tested than Bitcoin.

In summary:

• Bitcoin = a safe bet, few promises, but solid as a rock.

• Altcoins = more potential, but also more risks.
